(FYI, the patch does seem to fix the problem Tomas was complaining about.) But it reminded me of another issue. With OS X 10.6.8, and otool -L reporting that psql depends on libedit version 2.11.0, the up-arrow recall of Tomas' query gets truncated around here: 5I0/NTm+fFkB0McY9E2fAA [rest of the line missing] i.e. it's keeping roughly 1021 characters. I was about to just chalk that up to some limit in libedit's readline() implementation, but I can see in my ~/.psql_history file that the entire query is logged. Plus \e recalls the full query correctly. And if I up-arrow to recall the query, then do anything to modify that recalled query (such as typing a few characters at the end, then moving back or forth through the history), then subsequent recalls of the query work fine. So I'm not sure if this is a bug purely in libedit, or if there's something amiss in psql. I saw a possibly-related complaint about psql+libedit on Debian[1]. Anyone have a better guess about what's going on?
